Ron DeSantis-All hands on deck for immigration enforcement efforts — no excuses!

Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost-Today, our country lost a giant. I send my deepest condolences to Congressman Raúl Grijalva's family, loved ones, and community as they mourn this loss.

Ileana Garcia-In a remarkable turn of events, the residents of Senator @ShevrinJones Shev Jones district emerged victorious today! #Recall One of many to come. #StarLakesCondos Despite being unjustly expelled from their own board meeting by county officers, the Star Lake Condo owners displayed unwavering determination and successfully ousted the existing board members, #YouAreFired replacing them with new members. This triumph fills me with confidence that our bipartisan efforts to establish safety measures and safeguard consumer rights for everyone will persist, particularly for our cherished seniors who are often overlooked and underserved in our community. I express my deepest gratitude to the divine for bestowing us with grace!!
